How to Clean the Engine Compartment

Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods, and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. Pressure washing them is great. If you don't own a little cheap piece of crap pressure washer like this, go to the car wash and hose the thing down. You can do the whole thing right on a trailer at the car wash. I did that for years before I bought the crap pressure washer there. This car has been freshly painted. I don't suppose the paint on this car is two weeks old. But that's why you paint a car is to protect things, so we just go in there and do the engine degreaser or what-have-you in there, and then wash it all off really careful and get all the grease and yuck and water all over this fresh paint, that's what it's for it protects it. He's pretty careful anything that's exposed, would be bad to get water in, he's got taped up. Every once in awhile there's open lines, but those are going to get taken out eventually anyway."
